Well frou frou, I ordered the Les Ailes de la Soie in cw 14, the Turquoise/Gray/Green. It's from FW 2014 and I've always admired it in other cws. I almost never go for geometric patterns, but this one is spectacular, and it seems I just keep coming back to it. I think it appeals to me because of all the dots (I do like dots) and the tiny intricate triangles and mixes of colors. The Honore varied border is always fun too. This cw is outside my comfort zone to some extent in that I rarely wear green. It's a very flattering color on me, I'm just strange about it. I have nothing green in my wardrobe outside of the Super H that DS got me and one cheapo scarf. If I were smart, I'd always wear green but.....

Anyway, all the other available cws are either too similar to what I already have or I just know they wouldn't flatter me. So, when this one popped back up suddenly, it got me thinking for a couple of weeks. I found some archive pics of it modeled. If it turns out to be like Florasun's pics then it's going to be too green for me. But there was another member who modeled it way back in 2014 also and hers was quite a soft and lovely blue melange. We'll see. I'm totally prepared to send it back. I won't be heartbroken and I can finally stop thinking about Les Ailes then because it wasn't meant to be. But if it works I'll be very happy to have a fun and rare to me geometric that I love wearing. I believe it will go well with denim, navy, gray and white. Of which there is plenty in my wardrobe.

What a gorgeous scarf, further enhanced by the jacket. The jacket makes me want more of the scarf. When I look at this picture, I get the feeling that if you opened your jacket, SPRING would burst out.

I know I'm off theme, but I am so ready for the first signs of spring already. Wintry themed silks have subsided for the brighter richer pops of color! My sweaters and tops are winter colors though:p

Pirula I so love Ailes de Soie in green after seeing it on a blog I read [ can send you the link if you like] The girl is dark like you and it looks sensational .
As you know I love modern geometric or fun designs , but it's always touch and go whether or not they'll suit me as I'm quite pale and mousey . This was one that didn't so I sadly passed on it . The H comme 70cm was one that works really well .
You never know….

There, I've given you a second clue as to my yet-to-arrive 90cm .And it's not a design I have already , nor a designer I've bought before .
Here are more clues:It has a dot but isn't at all dotty , and it has a tiny reference to London too :D:laugh::graucho::graucho:

Yes please! I'd love the link!

Knowing you love it gives Ailes some serious cred. Remaining open minded. It IS worth a try.

Hmmmmmm, whatever could it be??? Ohhhhh, if it's the same as BJS's latest find I'll be so jealous!
